Master Insert - SoundCraft VI6 User Manual

Master Insert

This operation mode is an elegant way to use Reverb Effects without loosing Input Channels for the Return
signals.
In this Mode the FX processor is inserted in an AUX Master, and the AUX Master is assigned to the Main
Master (LR).
The Input Gain of the FX can be adjusted with the Insert Send TRIM control and the effect amount can be
adjusted with the Master Fader

You can use the AUX Master like an FX Return, because it has EQ and Dynamics that can be
used on the output from the FX Units. (You must set the Insert Point to pre processing.)
Inserting an FX processor in a Master Bus
Press the [ALL BUSSES] key.
Press the <PAN> area on the required Master Bus (see Figure 21-9).
Press the {INSERT} key to open the Insert Pool select page (see Figure 21-5).
Pressing the <FX> button opens the FX selection options.
Select the desired FX processor. If the processor is in use, a dialog asks if you want to move it from
its current location.
Press <Exit> to return to the page similar to Figure 21-9. Notice that an FX processor icon appears
in the FX area of the screen when an FX Processor is allocated to the master bus in question.
Press {LR} to route the FX signal to the Main Master bus.
Select the Insert {POINT} to be pre processing in order to use the EQ and Dynamics on the output of
the FX.
Pressing the <PAN> area will return the screen to its normal display mode.
The FX processor can be adjusted by pressing the FX processor icon on the screen. This will open a page
similar to Figure 21-10. The parameters available for adjustment will depend upon the type of FX which is
selected. A description of the Effects and their associated controls is given in the section which starts on
page 13 of this chapter.
